Captain Mikey was so great and made the trip a memorable one! My husband caught a few sharks and other species of fish to really make it worth it. Captain Mikey was so friendly and easy going! Highly recommend his charter!

Captain Michael was fun and engaging. He took us to a nice spot where we caught lots of fish. He also filleted the catches and recommended a shop that cooked it for us. It was a great time and the kids loved it. Would certainly recommend it.

Captain Mike was great with my son and always made sure the lines were ready with bait. Even with the wind and waves we still caught some neat fish. We will definitely book with him again when we are back in Clearwater.
